Putin, Trump, and Zelensky May Meet Without European Leaders
Thursday, 7 August 2025 () President Donald Trump is preparing for a possible meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as soon as the week of August 11–17, according to The New York Times. Trump reportedly briefed European and Ukrainian leaders about his plan on August 6, following talks in Moscow between Putin and Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff. The proposed summit would involve only the three leaders—Trump, Putin, and Zelensky—with no participation from European officials, according to NYT sources. Sources cited by CNN confirmed that the summit could occur either next week or within two weeks. Two White House officials told CNN that the initiative originated with Putin, who raised the idea during his meeting with Witkoff. Trump then reportedly directed his team to expedite preparations for a three-way meeting.
